I think we should sue the gods of the ionosphere for not providing equal
coverage throughout the entire world. Or, the organizers of the contest
for choosing a period with such sparse ionospheric activity. Why, when
we looked at the real time propagation charts should we tolerate next to
zero paths between Michigan and other parts of the world whilst folks in
Virginia were working South America and elsewhere like gangbusters.
This is unfair! Complain to someone! Complain to anyone! And, send in
the lawyers! There MUST be someone to sue for this gross unfairness!

p.s. If you didn't note a few :) :) :) in the above, I guess I'll put
them in here. :)
p.p.s. Congrats to all those who found favorable propagation -
especially those reporting > 1 million points during this contest!

I was thinking of "fairness" as the playing field on 10 m this weekend
was definitely skewed toward VK including Z21DXI :-)
Nobody even in W/VE couldn't hear my 100W into 4L. Reminds me of 6 m
activity...
